Q: How do you think your defense matched up with the Cowboys offense?
A: It was a great offense last year, they’ve got a lot of talent on their team offensively, this year – and defensively. But, it’s a division game, so it’s going to be a good matchup.
Q: What is it like opening the season in Dallas on Sunday Night Football?
A: I mean, first road game, home-opener for them, we know it’s going to be electric, so it’s going to be a big game.
Q: Do you think you are prepared for the Cowboys offense?
A: I mean, we’ve seen what they can do last year. Right now, we’re lucky that we play them twice a year, so we’re more familiar [with them] than [teams] outside the division. So, like I said, it’s going to be a great matchup. Just can’t wait to play on Sunday.
Q: Are you finally ready to hit another football team in a real game?
A: It’s been pretty much long overdue. I think a lot of guys been wanting to hit somebody [and] make it count. And just get back into it – Giant football.
Q: How good do you think this Giants team can be?
A: Like I said, we just take it one week at a team. So, it’s what we put into it.
Q: What have you put into it so far that leads you to believe you can be a good team?
A: I can only say, you’ve got to watch the television, watch it out there [on the practice field] and that’s it.
